thesidekickcat Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 That may be truer than any of us want to think about."Dr. Death" Australia's term for Dr. Patel, actually "practised" here in Portland's Kaiser system ( which is our medical plan), botching many surgeries and killing people due to sloppy work. Kaiser didn't even report it to our feeble state medical review board due to some legal out, in fact they didn't even seem to notice all the botched surgeries for several years and hadn't checked him out before hiring him or they would have known he was reprimanded or worse in NY before coming here . Just read about a former news anchor here in Portland who is going up against the State's University Med School Hospital (OHSU) located here in Portland, for not allowing regular lawsuits for malpractice and not telling patients of their sweet legal deal from state, he was injured during "day surgery" and still has major lifetime problems due to it.OHSU's Liability When Doctors are beyond accountable So the safest thing is to stay healthy and stay away from Doctors...and that's no joke!!!PatGod bless everyone.
